Find the probability that the student answers none correctly.
\n" ); document.write( "P(none)+P(not none)=1
\n" ); document.write( "P(not none)=1-P(none)
\n" ); document.write( "So \"not none\" means he answer at least one correctly... up to and including all 10 correctly
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "P(none)=\"%280.5%29%5E10=0.0009765625\"
\n" ); document.write( "P(not none)=\"1-0.0009765625\"
\n" ); document.write( "P(not none)=\"0.9990234\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
